Headed to VIR this weekend, did a little prep yesterday and snapped a pic, thought I'd share.

Awesome pic. Love the white. VIR is such an awesome track... I was there for the first time two weeks ago and loved it. Enjoy!

Nice, this is only my 2nd time there, 1st was 2005 I think

good luck! hopefully the weather clears out in time for tracks to dry...Mason_Dixon up here opens Sat. so we are in the same boat!

Seeing this halfway makes me wish I had gotten white after all... until I see mine in the garage lol. Beautiful!

Have fun. I've got my next day up in 1.5 weeks, and will be my second time. Wishing you good weather while hoping for the same for me. lol

Great weekend, Z preformed flawlessly. Here's my best lap on the full course, can't wait to go back I think there's a lot of time left in the car.

Awesome lap!!!! Trofeo Rs? Couple observations:

You took more speed through the uphill esses than I did.
For reference, before 11 I brake at 180 ft mark and I still think I had more to gain there. I was using this video as a reference for the line to model:
Before Rollercoaster I was braking at the 2 board on my hot laps and it took everything the brakes had to slow 'er down

Our laps and lines really similar throughout otherwise. What PTM mode were you in? Very cool!

Yessir, on 325 Trofeos.

- I think there's actually more speed in the esses if I can make myself do it, car is super confidence inspiring there.

- 11 and before rollercoaster for sure you're right, braking late is one of the hardest things for me to commit to. Can't wait to go back and work on it.

Thanks for the reply, maybe we'll end up down there at the same time sometime.

Oh and I was in 5-Race.
